bye getting the deficit down is the essential for those things. that is why our deficit reduction plan is not an alternative to a great plan, it is the very foundation of our great plan. it is the only way that we will get to britain on the rise. now, i know that you are asking whether our plan is working and here is the truth. the damage was worse than we thought and its taking longer than we hoped. the world economy, especially in the year autozone has been much weaker than expected in the last two years. some of your big trading partners like spain, ireland, italy are separating less by us. it makes it harder for us to pay off our debt. but here is the crucial thing you need to know. yes it is worse than we thought and yes it is taking longer but we are making progress thanks to the good result of george osborn we've cut off the deficit. 25%. that has helped to keep our interest rates at record low levels. keeping the market is low. more money in your pockets, giving businesses more confidence to invest, creating more jobs. and if you don't bel

the second has a one half trillion dollar deficit. probably the most cynical gimmick in this bill is something that we all probably agree on. we don't think we should cut doctors' 21% next year. we stop those cuts from occurring every year for the last seven years. we all call this the toxics. well, according to your numbers it cost her her $71 billion. it was in the first iteration of all these bills. because it was a big price tag and made the score look bad, may look like a deficit, that provision was taken out and has been going on in stand-alone legislation. ignoring these costs does not remove them from the backs of taxpayers. hiding spending does not reduce spending. and so when you take a look of this is just as not add up. let's finish with the cost curve. we bending the cost curve down or up? well, if you look at your own chief actuary of medicare revenue up. he is time we are going up $222 billion, adding more to the unsustainable fiscal situation we have. and so when you take a look at this it is really deeper than the def

clearly america has large and ever-growing deficits. you propose a tax cut. that's deficit spending. >> wait a minute. first of all, this is a two-step deal. everybody knows we need the big deal and we talk about that in 30 seconds. but we're not going to get to the big deal by jumping off the bridge. and what we are saying is it is not the right thing to do you have the largest tax increase in history of america and to have $1.2 trillion worth of spending cuts that don't even look at medicare and medicaid. across the board without thinking through what this big deal is going to be. and anybody from either party hould come to a realization that the big deal counts. all we need to do is get a small part of an extension, six months, what ever does, and we'll get there. remember, when you talk about these taxes and the suspended, it can't be done by 10 people in the back of the room. and has to be a normal order on the hill because they are the only people that understands what are in those bills. >> do any of you really think we'll jump off a fiscal cliff? or d

if you think about it i would argue that the inability of the government to fix this borrowing debt deficit issue in the book, vice president biden's chief of staff, talking about the economic crisis in 2011, that's exactly what is going on. there is so much evidence that it is the biggest future. we are on the path becoming europe and greece. you just can't keep borrowing money. there is a stunning and fiction in this country, and we need some sort of we need some serious intervention. in the book, what i attempt to do is take people to the presidents and leaders and tell you exactly because of the luxury of time and my publisher, simon & schuster, i declined to get the meeting notes to get the exact detail to interview president obama and speaker boehner and the key players in this. i just want to take one quick snapshot from what happened that we didn't know about, which is critical. when the cops pull up less when the president was upset, he called the congressional leaders on a saturday morning at 11:00 o'clock a.m. something in democratic andemoat republican leader were trying to work
